I would be really interested in Stillen bracket if it works as advertized. But I also got the same model of the bracket when I selected G37 Sedan 2011. I wonder if having a sports bumper on S model makes a difference. So yea, if anyone have pictures of their Saleen bracket on G37S, please share

Does anyone know how fix-it tickets in CA work for 2nd or a 3rd offense for the same thing? Meaning, does the fine or type of violation change at all?

I recently got a fix-it ticket for windows and no front plate but will likely remove the plate and replace the tint after the ticket is signed off.

Thanks

I sent the pics to Stillen, and here's what they said

Thank you for your email!
That appears to be correct.
Our next shorter bracket would cause the license plate to hit the right side.

Best regards,

Sounds to me like grill depth changed between models prior to 08 and after, and Stillen did not bother to adjust bracket length for newer models. If this is true, and you didn't just get a dud (not threaded properly), this is bull. I was planning on getting one for my G. Stillen is now running Black Friday special with almost everything 15% Off.

+1 for hide away plates! Love mine, $125 bucks, fits right in the grill. See below

Took me an hour or so. I just read the directions. The only problem I guess is you can see it somewhat especially on light colored cars. Since we have the faux grilles its hard to place unless you remove the lower center grille or have an Aftermarket bumper with open spaces. I am thinking about repositioning mine and removing my lower center grille.

the only bad thing about the stillen bracket is when someone backs into ur car and it bends, it scratched the crap out of my bumper when you spin it off the car

Why didn't you straightened plate before spanning it off?
